Carson Wentz to Undergo Foot Surgery

Indianapolis Colts quarterback Carson Wentz will be undergoing surgery and will be out for five to 12 weeks. That's a significant range at this point in the season. It means Wentz could theoretically be back for Week 1. It also means he could be out until October.

For the time being, the Colts' starting quarterback will be Jacob Eason, a 2020 fourth-rounder who played college ball for both Washington and Georgia. He'll be backed up by Sam Ehlinger, Jalen Morton, and Brett Hundley, who just signed with the team this weekend. Of the four, only Hundley has thrown a pass in an official NFL game.
